There's men who can drink a beer, have a laugh, go home and sleep waking up the next morning thinking.."never again" and then there's morons who drink a beer, lose perception of reality, get aggressive and assault people, cause a nuisance and are scum of the earth who don't deserve their place in it, ruining it for all the others.
when you get to the point where you feel like conflict with another person even if you perceive that its them at fault...I guarantee you have become that moron.
I am glad to say, have always been a man!

What can you say?
Waste of use/time of the following: Police, ambulance, hospital, court.
Verbally and physically abused a police officer (a female police officer).
Verbally abused hospital staff.
No prison sentence. It really does make you despair.
What an absolute scum bag.
The worry is that scum like this are wandering the streets, and have no concern for their actions and if idiots like this are getting away with it, what kind of message is that sending to other moronic pond-life.

In the past, anybody who nutted a policewoman would have suffered a well deserved fall down the stairs in the police station. Twice.
These days, they're probably given a voucher for a free happy meal and told not to do it again.

That sentence is a joke, all police officers deserve the protection of the law, we call them when an idiot like this needs dealing with, we call them when we need their help and protection.
A headbutt is far worse than a punch, its utterly disgusting. Anybody committing an act of violence like this needs to be kept safely away from alcohol - which is freely available in our society so I suggest prison. 12 months, no early release - behave or get sentence extended. Thank you pc Riley for doing your job, and I hope you know most of the public support you even if the courts dont see it the same way. perhaps if the magistrate was on the receiving end of some violent conduct they would realise how horrible it is, if they got headbutted you can be sure the offender would be going down.

I can only agree with these comments, the fault lies once again with the courts, they will not jail anybody if they can help it because the jails are full

I wonder how many times this man has come before the courts or needed the police calling out because of his behaviour? What does it take to keep these people off the streets, making them safe for law abiding people?

"But Rowbottom, who had been drinking, immediately became violent towards PC Riley, head-butting her in the mouth causing a cut to her lip."

Oh what a surprise... Alcohol yet again involved in yet another unprovoked violent assault.
